Description
Ever wished it could be Christmas every day? Wish again... 'Romantic, festive fun and as irresistible as a tub of Quality Street' Red 'With laugh-out-loud moments, it's another classic Kelk novel' Woman and Home 'Fun and festive . . a witty, feelgood read' Popsugar 'Heartwarming and funny' Heat 'This brilliant, hilarious read is escapist fun' Fabulous 'Sparkles with wit and warmth . . . I'll read anything Lindsey writes, but this one might just be my new favourite of her novels' BETH O'LEARY 'Brimming with wit, humour and festive sparkle' SARAH MORGAN 'The Christmas Wish is Lindsey Kelk's best yet. I couldn't have loved this romantic, festive, brilliantly funny novel more' ROSIE WALSH 'Absolutely screamingly hilarious, full of Christmas-y sparkle and a lovely boy-next-door romance, but with some serious depth to bring you all the feels' LIZZY DENT 'Reading this book felt like opening a box of Quality Streets, getting out the Christmas edition of the Radio Times, then popping on a Santa Hat' SOPHIE COUSENS Newly single lawyer Gwen Baker is hoping that a family Christmas - countryside, a mountain of food and festive films - will salve the sting of her career hanging by a thread and her heart being trampled on. Because everyone else has their life sorted: even Dev, her boy-next-door crush, is now a tall, dark and handsome stranger with a fiancee. She can't help wishing her future was clearer. Then Gwen wakes up to discover it's Christmas day all over again. Like Groundhog Day but with turkey. And family arguments. On repeat. As she figures out how to escape her own particular Christmas hell, Dev is the one bright spot. He might be all grown-up but underneath he's just as kind and funny as she remembers. Maybe, just maybe, her heart can be mended after all. But how do you fall in love with someone who can't remember you from one day to the next?
